An Englishman who moved to New Zealand to be a Baptist minister says he is serving God by learning to speak te reo Maori. British immigrant, John Catmur, believes God told him to move to New Zealand. Since living here, he has immersed himself in Maori culture and learnt te reo. The impact was so powerful, it made him feel a part of this land and has since lead him on a path of inspiring others to take up the koroka (mantle). This story, will be told by John in te reo Maori to demonstrate the remarkable passion he has for the language. From standing on the marae with his te reo class, to worshiping Jesus Christ with members of his church in te reo Maori and encouraging other pakeha friends to speak the language - we capture a glimpse of John on his mission. Like the biblical prophet, this John the Baptist carries the word of God around to share with others. But unlike the original prophet, John shares his message in te reo Maori.
